Plaça España

On our first Friday in Barcelona our friend Elisabet brought us to the fontains in Plaça España. Every Friday they light the fountain up with lights that change color to the music that is played. The hight and patterns of the water also change. The water looks like it is dancing to the music. They have shows from about 7 to 9 every 15 minutes or so. Every show is a little different with different music playing. There were a lot of people there to watch at first but many of them left after the first show so it was easy to find a seat.

Behind the fountain is the National Museum of Catalan Art. It looks so beautiful at night. They have spotlights behind it that make it look like it belongs somewhere like disney world.
